Their singer is a fucking lovely bloke.
Sorry to be a namedropping cunt, but he is. He also told my mate he'd managed to make it 'up to five wanks a day', which I find most amusing.

Is there anyone in music you don't know?

Yes.

Apart from Kylie?

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:31, Reply)

I don't know 'Billy Ray Cyrus' either.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:34, Reply)

Really? Bill?
Top bloke

Terrible coronary issues though, poor chap.

I just don't think you'd understand

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:45, Reply)

have you "known" Myley Cyrus?

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:43, Reply)

'Five wanks'?
I thought there was only two other members?

One off the wrist for Richie, innit

I really fucking hate the Manics
and in particular their singer's fucking whiny voice
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:30, Reply)

They have done a few good songs over the years
Too fucking serious though
( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:31, Reply)

they had a few songs with good guitar on them before Richie killed himself
that is as much as can be said for them.

Other than that they are fucking whiny drivel, and I hate them almost as much as I hate U2
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:32, Reply)

I think the concept of the band was much better than the songs.
They did talk a good game and certainly did look the part.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:32, Reply)

Look the part?
I was never sure if the fucking dwarf non-swimmer was a bloke or a lass!

They looked like gay bikers
( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:37, Reply)

Obviously I was not referring to the 'five-wank' singer...
...or the midget drummer.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:42, Reply)

So, the cross-dressing giant bassist then?

( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:43, Reply)

Yes - he looked like a pop star.

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:45, Reply)

pop star utter, utter cunt
( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:46, Reply)

Exactly.
They are usually interchangable.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:52, Reply)

Their music is appalling, pompous, pseudo-intellectual shite.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:32, Reply)

The lyrics are dreadful.
Their dropping of cultural references into songs is such a dull formula that they never outgrew.
Cunts.
(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:34, Reply)

Although it has the worst song title in history
I loved (for some reason) the drumming on "If you tolerate this, then your children will be next"
( sporters I’m sincerely gratitude to you, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:37, Reply)

I think that was also on the worst named album of all time - "This is my truth, tell me yours"

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:40, Reply)

i would have called it, "This is my anus, show me yours"

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:41, Reply)

That song's about johnathan king

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 1 Mar 2011, 9:41, Reply)

Hahahaha

Exhibit 'a' m'lud....
"Prosperity - exports for Pol Pot
Prosperity - Mein Kampf for beginners

I think the jury will see that this is just one example of total and utter fuckwittery and decline the offer to see more.
